Journal Title: Istanbul Medical Journal - Year 2020, Vol 21, Issue 6
Abstract
Pelvic organ prolapse rarely occurs during pregnancy. Its aetiology is not well understood and it can complicate pregnancy. A 36-year-old multigravida patient developed uterovaginal prolapse in the second trimester of her pregnancy and was managed successfully with the pessaries ring. There are conservative approaches and surgical options in the treatment of prolapse. Pessary ring is a safe treatment option and should be considered before surgical options in the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse.
